passEnger - The Funk / The Fall (12" red vinyl) eclipsemusic - eclipse002
Written, produced and mixed by passEnger Mastered by Aaron Carl
Italian based Eclipsemusic's second outing comes with a serious release courtesy of passEnger, young and talented producer of Night Drive Music and Paul Mac's Sula Muse fame.
This two tracks 12'' confirms his interest in the deepest and more underground side of Detroit Techno. On side A ''The Fall'' reveals the smoother side of this upcoming producer: a deep melodic techno builder, with emphasis on atmospheric strings and arp'd melodies, developing on a funked up techno drum section. The flipside brings you the burner of the 12": ''The Funk'' is an a epic, slow-growing and booty-shaking techno track with all the elements in its right place: a killer bassline over an effective drum work takes the flight with the building strings. Namedropping would be useless in this case, just check with your ears!
